1t viii not be difficult to mention
cases in which eminent individyals
have been preserved from danger and
death by the manifest hand of provi-
| dence.
John Knox, the Scoth reformer, had
many enemies who sought to compass
his destruction. He was in the habit
of sitting in particular chair in his
own house. with his back to the win
dow. One evening, however. when
assembling his family, he would neither
occupy his accustomed seat nor allow
anybody else 10 do so. That very
evening a bullet was sent through the
window with "a design to kill him. Ii

occupied, and made a hole in the
candlestick
1t is related of Augustine that he was
going on one occasion to preach at a
distant town, and took guide to direct
him on the way. BY some means the
guide mistook his way. ard got into a
Dy-path. 1t was afterward learned
that party of mis,reants had designed
to waylay and murder him. and that
his lie was saved through the guide
mistake.
Charles of Bala was once saved from
death by what some would call fool
ish mistake. On one of his journeys to
Liverpool his saddle-bag was put into
the wrong boat. He had taken his seat
when he discovered it, and had to
change at the last minute. At first he
was yexed and disappointed, but he
afterward learned that the boat in
which he intended to go was lost, and
all its passengers drowned.
Howard, the philanthropist. was
once preserved from death by what
some would call more chance, but
which was no other than special
providence. He always set high value
on Sabbath privileges, and was exact
and careful in his attendance on the
means of grace. That he might neither
increase the labor of his servants nor
prevent their attendance on public " or
ship, he was accustomed to walk to
the chapel at Bedford, where be at
tended. One day a man whom he had
reprovcd foI his idle and dissOlute
habits resolved to waylay and murder
him. That morning, however, for some
reason or other. he resolved to 60 on
horseback, and by a different road.
Thus his valuable life was preserved.

CHAPTER NxXIV.


The audacity OF the man COMPOUNDED me.
We had TO a great extent reckoned without
our host, and Mr.. Beaufoy, for whatever
reason, was evidently determined to brazen
out his position as Mary's guardian.
The contrast between his firm, erect, bus
iness-like bearing, the commanding kind
ness which he knew 50 well how to assume,
and the extreme terrvr and repugnance ex-
hibited by the girl whom he claimed, was
the most eloquent appeal for protection
that helplessness could make. She shrank
away from her guardian, a manifestation
which in no degree modified his affectation
of sauvity towards her, though he spoke as
usual in a tone Of distinct command.
'"Come, my dear" he repeated; 'syou
must get ready at once, as we leave An
twerp Immediately"
The habit Of submission was so strong In
her, the helplessness Of her position at Han
over Lodge had so entered into. her soul,
that Mary, with look Of piteous appeal,
began TO move towards the door.
'sStayi' / said. / do not allow Miss For
tescue to leave this place except of her OVID
free viii and pleasure"
Mr.. Beaufoy shut his eyes aud smiled ser
aphically.
Come, Mary was all that he said.
put my arm round her to reaSsure her.
"And as your business is not with me or
